Roy – Big City Sin and Small Town Redemption (CD)

Coming out of virtually nowhere, this Pacific Northwest band wows and amazes with their impressively introspective and emotive type of power-pop music. Beginning “Big City Sin…” with “Something that’s Real”, which has an driving beat that is unparalleled along with a lush production and proper harmonization. Coming in smoothly between the country-tinged alt rock of The Weakerthans and the alt country of Drive Til Morning, Roy proves much with this,…

Susan L. Yasinski, known to her fans world wide as Susan SurfTone, has been playing guitar since she was nine years old. “I started taking lessons with a great teacher who introduced me to The Ventures and there was no turning back. There was one problem, however — in 1964 the boys wouldn’t let a girl play guitar in their garage bands.” But she’s never put the guitar down and…

Lipolyze (Weight Loss)

There are a large amount of supplements on the market, and the amount only decreases slightly when it comes to pills that are intended to increase the amount of weight that individuals lose. Where many of these products rely on caffeine for weight loss, Lipolyze’s blend of different materials is a much more holistic and ensures that the weight that is lost is kept off.

Josh Rouse – Subtitulo (CD)

While the style of “Subtitulo” is more in the vein of singer-songwriters like Joseph Arthur and Dave Matthews, there is a conscious decision made by Rouse present on tracks like “Quiet Town” that incontrovertibly links eir with previous styles like Warren Zevon. There are quite a few deviations made by Rouse on “Subtitulo” that really makes listeners perk up; the lush instrumentation present on each of the tracks on “Subtitulo”…

Audio Technica ATH-ANC23 (Headphones)

The versatility of the ATH-ANC23 phones is considerable. The design of the headphones is such that it is perfect for those that are working out, either on their cardio or their weight days. However, the noise cancelling aspect of the headphones increases their versatility. When this option is switched on, a listener is lost in their own world. The volume needed to bleed through the headphones is nothing less than…

Corona (4.6% ABV)

For whatever reason, it seems as if the college scene is single-mindedly obsessed with the beer efforts of the biggest breweries. Whenever we have any sort of get-together at NeuFutur, individuals bring their own Bud or similar product rather than take advantage of our beer selection. Where many of the different brews that we receive are from small-time breweries, we requested Corona for review. The surprising thing about this beer…

Andrew Douglas Rothbard – Abandoned Meander (CD)

Andrew Douglas Rothbard – Abandoned Meander “A Beginning” is the opening track on the disc, and has Rothbard come forth with a very droning type of sound that relies heavily on repetition to get individuals focused into the disc. The track may only be two and a half minutes, but the fact that the track does not change much over that time means that the song feels twice as long…

Diana Ross – I Love You (CD)

Diana Ross hand-picked the majority (in fact, all but one) of the tracks on “I Love You”, covering what ey thinks are the best examples of love expressed in song. There is one original track on this disc, and that is “Remember”. “Remember” is a slow track, and the instrumentation sounds a little off. It is as if Ross is trying to go forth with a very fifties sounding set…

Nordic Naturals Complete 3-6-9 (Fish Oil)

I believe that there are more fish oil and omega-containing products on the market than any other sort of health product. Simply put, there is a tremendous amount of variation that is here in terms of quality and what each of these supplements contain. It is thus vitally important to research the differences between these products, and to really understand what one is getting into before purchasing a product. The…

Alex Ross-Iver – Best of 2001-2005 (CD)

If there is one word to accurately describe Alex Ross-Iver, it is busy. This individual has cut over 500 tracks since ey got into the music scene at the age of five, and this “greatest hits” collection sports 27 separate tracks. However, just because someone has 500 tracks to their name does not necessarily mean that any of the tracks are particularly exciting. A sterling case of that concerns Steve…

Natrol DHEA (120 Capsules)

DHEA is one of those supplements that I must admit that I was not too familiar with when we first received product for review. We had heard a lot about it, but nothing about what it was supposed to do. However, we can speak from experience now that it works, and in particular, it affects a number of different parts of an individual. Specifically, DHEA effects how an individual deals…

EXCRUCIATOR ANNOUNCE DEBUT ALBUM RELEASE DATE

EXCRUCIATOR was formed in early 2008 when friends Chris Birkle and Josh Kay, both bored with the overdone nu-core sounds dominating the Portland metal scene, proposed the idea of starting a band that brought back the energy of the earliest days of death metal as it evolved from the ashes of thrash. The two convinced the destroyer of strings, Craig Bridenbeck, to join on bass and were complete shortly thereafter…
